Summary

Screening for genital infection (GI), sexually transmitted infection (STI) and asymptomatic carriage of group B streptococcus (GBS) in pregnant women is a common reason for medical appointments. Conventional testing is performed by using vaginal and/or cervical classic sampling (VCS). Vaginal self-sampling (VSS) has progressively emerged as an alternative to VCS for STI agent screening. The use of vaginal self-sampling (VSS) could facilitate follow-ups and potentially help in the prevention of gynaecological disorders.

Conditions

  • Genital Infection
  • Asymptomatic Infections

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Vaginal self-sampling

The objective is to determine the non-inferiority of vaginal self-sampling compared with vaginal/cervical classical sampling, and evaluate the possibility of using it in all clinical situations indicating the prescription of such a procedure to screen for genital infections (GIs), sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and group B streptococcus (GBS) asymptomatic carriage in pregnant women.
